Were moving to Perth possibly to Secret Harbour later on this year (as long as were granted the visa) Ive just stumbled across this website
http://www.migrate360.com/australia/...rth.php?id=234
It covers Perth and will guide you through some virtual tours, hope it might be helpful for other prople who are planning to move to Perth.

Have you been before? We were on a reccie christmas there we had a ball Secret Harbour is lovely, well the houses are.


Cheers Carol

Yes Carol,

That 360 site is great.

I looked for Secret Harbour but it dosen't go down that far....shame

Alan.

We're leaving the end of August

I'll need to have a look at Secret Harbour, looks like and whole expact community in it's self...

Elaine and Rob - tell us more about Secret Harbour !!!
What made you decide there rather than Perth itself?
What attracts you?
What are the job opportunites like?
Do you have kids?
What is the schooling like...

Sharing your thoughts may raise other thoughts / ideas in the minds of those (including myself!) that are currently making these sort of decisions. Other peoples thinking is always interesting as it stimulates questions and
questions raise answers which help you make an informed decision !

Let's hear from you if you have the energy to explain!

Cheers!

LOL No reason why we have picked SH still not 100% sure if thats the area in Perth we will live, we have to go to Perth for visa options, we have never been to Perth before but have been to Melbourne, Adaliade, Sydney, Brisbaine and the Gold Coast, I guess its going to be a case of moving over there and having a look at the areas for jobs, a house and school etc. I have 2 teenage boys and Im told there isnt any secondary schools in SH so we might not live there, we have just done some research on Perth and SH seems to come out on top. Im in the same boat as you really and dont know a great deal about Perth as were still doing our homework. We should be putting our visa through next month and hope to be over in OZ before xmas.

That's good to hear.

Hi there,

We've been in Secret Harbour for 18 months now and like it. It's not as established as the Northern suburbs - something that still grates a little whenever we visit NOR but on the whole it's a lovely area.

Everything you need is either here or on it's way. We've now got a shopping centre with a bottle shop! The train line is coming (eventually!) and there's a fab new sports complex that's currently under construction.

I've attached a few piccies (seeing as the recommended site doesn't cover SH) that I've taken out and about. We're over on a business visa and have started our own business here. It's such hard work, sometimes you forget how beautiful it is outside

There's Secret Harbour Primary school, the new ABC childcare place (that my son will be starting on Monday *gulp* and a general view of SH.

A few more piccies for you all

There's the new shopping centre, the golf course and a 'typical' SH street.

Just a few more.....

The entrance to Secret Harbour from Mandurah Road, the view from our front door (from our old rental) and surfers on the SH beach - taken the week before last - not bad for Autumn, eh?

There are more photos and nonsense on our blog: http://delaneygang.blogspot.com/

you've just moved Secret Habour to the top of the list....

Many thanks for showing us the pics of SH I will look at your blog in more details at the weekend as right now work is calling me to leave the pc We have choosen SH to live and it looks beautiful.

It's not bad Too many poms though

Good luck with the move.
